في الرجل يكون له على الرجل الدين فلا يدرى أين هو؟
A man who owes a debt to another and does not know where he is
Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 22039 — A man who owes a debt to another
٢٢٠٣٩ - حدثنا أبو بكر قال: حدثنا حفص بن غياث عن أشعث عن الحسن قال: إذا مات الرجل وعليه دين فلم يدر (١) وارثه فليجعله في سبيل اللَّه، (فإن) (٢) كان (مسلما) (٣) فلم يدر (٤) وارثه فليتصدق به عنه.
Al-Hasan said: When someone dies owing a debt and it is not known where his heirs are, that debt should be spent in the way of Allah; and if he was a Muslim and it is not known where his heirs are, it should be given in charity on his behalf.
